Chapter 35: A Series of Twists and Turns
[That guy from Niujiaozhou was right.]
Is Old Sai about to die?
[Will Gale take out Old Sai this time, and then the Rebirth System activate?]
[If only that were true, I'd rather Old Sai just die already. These past few days, Old Sai has completely broken my defenses.]
If people were still somewhat saddened before knowing that Old Sai was going to die, they wouldn't be now.
Touching interests is more moving than touching the soul. The strengthened Said in the past few days has cut off many people's way of earning Haff coins from Zero Dam.
Said is undoubtedly a very popular tragic figure, but if this tragic figure is preventing everyone from earning Haff coins, then sorry, you'd better die.
[Go, Gale! Keep it up!]
The sky belongs to Hafk!
Before long, Luna's sniper scope and Bit's Sentinel Spiders clearly showed a well-equipped squad of Asara Guard soldiers escorting Said to the second floor of the visitor center.
"Raven?" Zhao Yu looked at the figure wearing a black mask and with scars on his face, somewhat puzzled.
The quest "Leader's Meeting" only mentions a meeting with Reiss, but it doesn't say that Raven will also be there.
"Ahem..." Raven sat down on a sofa on the second floor of the visitor center with an air of authority, looked at Zhao Yu, who was now dressed as Said, and the six chief guards behind him, who were dressed in full armor, and coughed twice.
"Madness draped in the robes of lucidity measures the width of the abyss. The unfallen blade hangs in the mirror, reflecting the imperial robes, reflecting the burial garments."
Order grows patterns in the cracks, and chaos writes the beginning for all things.
"When all the storms have sunk into the statue's eyes, the horizon is in the distance—the king gently turning the hourglass." Before Reiss could speak, the raven began to chant softly.
"Want to read poetry, my friend?"
"Look at you, now your army is strong and well-equipped."
The troops behind me were fully armed and well-equipped, with MK-2 and GT-1 fighter jets—such good stuff.
"Now, it seems you have new friends and no longer need us... old 'friends,' to the point that..."
"You won't even call me 'Prince' anymore."
Raven's words were full of sarcasm, mockery, and sarcastic remarks, which enraged the Asara chieftain's guards behind Zhao Yu.
"Watch your mouth, you bastard! Our Commander Said isn't someone like you can comment on!" Behind Zhao Yu, one of Chief Asara's guards glared at Raven and snapped.
"Insolence!" Behind Raven, several guards wielding hammers looked in Said's direction and shouted.
The people behind Raven are counting on following Raven to restore the kingdom, and then get promoted and make a fortune. You could say that Raven is their faith at this moment. And now, the chief guards behind Said dare to insult their prince. What kind of behavior is this?
The six Asara chieftain guards behind Zhao Yu raised their guns and aimed them at Raven's group, and the Asara Guard soldiers from the entire visitor center also surrounded them.
Behind Raven, Thor also raised his gun, and Reese led his men back in a haphazard manner.
That was so exciting!
Is this internal strife?
[That's normal. Old Sai, Raven, and Reis were never really on the same wavelength!]
[But wasn't Old Sai supposed to be poor? Why did he turn against Raven already?]
What happened? The situation changed a bit too fast!
There's too much information; I need to sort it out. Seeing the tense situation, Zhao Yu realized he had to take control, or a fight would break out.
"This is so realistic." To be honest, Zhao Yu was somewhat surprised.
He thought the leaders' meeting was just a meeting with Reis to discuss some things.
"A hunter's dagger should be used to hunt wolves that lurk in the darkness and watch over the village, not to slay his own kind."
"All of you, step back," Zhao Yu said.
After Zhao Yu spoke, the guards of Chief Asara behind him all lowered their weapons, and the Asara Guard soldiers around them also stepped back a distance.
With a wave of his hand, the death row inmates under his command also laid down their weapons.
"Hey, that's more like it!"
Harmony brings wealth! Harmony brings wealth!
"The martial world isn't just about fighting and killing; it's about human relationships and social interactions!" Just then, Reis, who had just hidden to the side, stepped forward and tried to smooth things over.
"Hey Lao Sai, I'm telling you, you're not being fair!"
"When Prince Raven and I came to see you last time, you agreed so readily, but now you've turned your back on us!" Reese looked at Said in front of him and continued, "Even if you've gotten involved with GTI, you shouldn't have abandoned the brothers who went through thick and thin with you."
Reis looked at Said in front of him, a glint of greed flashing in his eyes.
"I have no cooperation with GTI, you have misunderstood." Zhao Yu did not respond directly to Reis's words.
What he wanted was to stir up the emotions of the operators.
In that case, we should gradually reveal this information. If we just tell them everything, how can the operators have any emotional fluctuations?
"Hey, I'm telling you, Lao Sai, you're treating us like idiots!"
The people behind you are armed with standard GTI gear. Where did they get all that stuff?
The people behind you are armed with standard GTI gear. Where did they get all that stuff?
"Don't tell me you bought it on sale at the mall!" Reis looked at the chief guards behind Said and continued, "Prince Raven and I didn't come here today to cause trouble. We're all comrades fighting for Asara. If you've gotten involved with GTI, then give us a hand too."
Reis's goal has always been simple: to make money.
If we could get on board with the GTI, I don't know how much money we could make!
"I told you, I didn't cooperate with GTI!" Zhao Yu pondered Said's personality, then imitated Said's tone.
As the debate began, the emotions of the operators watching Neres and Said argue in the visitor center from Bit's perspective also fluctuated wildly.
Reese repeatedly presented evidence and pressed for answers, while Said repeatedly denied the allegations, but he could only deny them without providing any concrete evidence. This unconsciously led the operators to think of that unexpected yet plausible possibility.
"Hmph, I've sent people to inquire about Longbow Valley and Baksh, but I haven't found out what you, Old Sai, are up to!"
Moreover, in the past, I was in charge of purchasing all the weapons and equipment for both of our units. Now, you have a new channel, right?
Given your personality, you would never cooperate with Hafk, so is the rest of the answer hard to guess?
"Said Ziaten, did you betray Asara to GTI?!" Seeing that Said only denied it, Reis immediately pretended to be angry and questioned him in a stern voice, while trying to provoke Said by splashing dirty water.
But this was exactly what Zhao Yu wanted.
